What are back-sheet materials for photovoltaic modules?

Back-sheet materials for photovoltaic modules serve several purposes such as providing electrical insulation, environmental protection and structural support. These functions are essential for modules to be safe for people working near them and for the structures to which they are attached.

What is a PV module backsheet?

On the back side of a PV module backsheet films are used. Backsheets are multilayer laminates made from various polymeric materials and inorganic modifiers. The multilayer structure allows tailoring the optical, thermo mechanical, electrical and barrier properties of backsheets according to specific requirements for PV modules.

What is dymat® solar panel film?

The dyMat® range of solar panel films offers solutions for all types of pv modules in any installation environment. dyMat® photovoltaic laminates, suitable for up to 1500 VDC, feature a wide choice of polyester and fluorinated materials, mono and multilayer structures, different colour and several output enhancing options.

What is Tedlar® PVF film-based backsheet?

Tedlar® PVF film-based backsheet is the industry standard for solar backsheets Tedlar® PVF film-based backsheet designs have been in the field for more than 30 years in different climates, including deserts, tropical locations, seashores, and mountainous terrains. They have protected millions of solar panels across multiple geographies.

Why do solar panels need a backsheet?

They play a critical role in protecting solar panels from harsh, varying environmental conditions over panel lifetimes. Not all backsheets are created equal. In order to protect a panel for more than 25 years, a backsheet must have the optimal balance of three critical properties: weatherability, mechanical strength and adhesion.

What standards are available for the energy rating of PV modules?

Standards available for the energy rating of PV modules in different climatic conditions, but degradation rate and operational lifetime need additional scientific and standardisation work (no specific standard at present). Standard available to define an overall efficiency according to a weighted combination of efficiencies.
